Profile bio says Linux user, so the meme must be talking about someone else. Either that or they're lying, which no one would ever do on the internet!
Something that stresses me out is when the game tosses me into scaling +mult with Ride the Bus, and then trying to discard face cards while playing something like pairs. Only scored face cards reset the bus, and if you have a hand full of them with no discards, you will be screwed if you don't burn them in earlier hands. Every time I toss what should be an unscored face card into a hand, I get a bit of a sweat I fucked it up and will blow the run. A learned stress after absently mindedly clicking and making a two pair instead of a pair on more than one occasion, it's not a nice feeling!
I do, and have, posted OC here and to other communities. I pretty much have a rule that this account will only ever post things I've made, photos I've taken, things like that. This also comes with the caveat that I simply don't create all that much, and when I do, it's likely not relevant to a lot of communities anyway.
Only thing I've created this past month was an FSF memorabilia action unboxing video of a plush GNU I won. Not exactly the meme centric type of post 196 largely appreciates lol. If I create something I feel fits in the future though, I'll post it!
Find hive, throw it.
"Bee hold this!"
"If you like the jeans you got me so much why don't you marry them?"
Later, at the wedding ceremony...
In all seriousness, there is a stark difference between writing a letter and drawing a letter. Give the artist some time to draw a word and I bet it'd look great, but that's not an efficient way to jot down notes or a list.
You're welcome, glad I could help!

In light of recent events, this is my new headcanon.
Happy Halloween to all of those who celebrate! I love this time of year, and I love this holiday. Here's a some pixel art I made while having fun trying to capture that silly, spooky feeling I like so much.
Early voting is happening in a lot of places across the US. If you have the means to do so, please don't forget to cast your ballot!
I am also releasing the 'I voted' sticker and its Krita work-file for anyone to freely use, adapt, modify, and distribute. It is a vector graphic, so it can be resized infinitely. Type used is Baloo, which is SIL Open Font Licensed, and included with the work-file. https://b.cgas.io/4NfGWnJu5gVb.zip
When the lights go out without warning, you're still here to bear the night.
Had a go at 1-bit pixel art and made this vent piece.

A low resolution 1-bit (2 color) pixel art image. Pictured is an anthro fox Foxfire sitting on the ground behind a lantern. The lantern has burned out and smoke is rising upward. Foxfire is looking down at the lantern with a sad expression. The bottom of the image says Lights - out.
One can only dream of having such a power.
Haven't really used the toon force much, so here's something absurd that I had a lot of fun making!

A digital comic starring two characters, a Foxfire and Pass-Man. Foxfire is an anthro red fox with reddish-brown fur, blue eyes, dark gray paws, cream colored muzzle and tail tip. Pass Man is an anthro, buff orange lion, sporting a brown mane and a superhero style lime green suit and yellow cape. The suit has an emblem in the middle which is an open lock with two astericks inside it. Pass Man is humbly smiling with his eyes closed, standing next to a computer desk with a login page open. Foxfire is staring, wide-eyed with a giant open mouth beaming expression. Foxfire asks Pass Man "What's your superpower?"
In the second panel Pass Man stares directly at the viewer, one paw bean pointing upward. He has a confident expression, mouth open and behind a backdrop of alternating light yellow lines. He says "I don't retype my whole password if I make a typo while logging in."
The third and fourth panel have become one in the same, as both have collided together. The borders are crushed and expanded at the center, and the divide between the two has shattered, chunks of comic border whizzing by. A whole manner of decor has been destroyed. Drywall exposed from peeling paint, cracks across the room, the computer screen now black, upside-down and airborn. A shelf, broken and barely hanging by a single screw, the ceiling light has fallen out, wires exposed, leaves from a plant slowly falling to the ground, and a plushie flying off screen. Foxfire has grabbed Pass Man literally through the panels, pressing his nose up to his, stars in his eyes. Pass Man has a shocked expression, pupils heavily shrunk. His cape is upward, still reacting to the force of the pull and sudden stop. Foxfire says "Wow! So cool!" Foxfire's tail is hanging out of the panel.
Bottom of the comic has text which reads "Foxfire - Pass Man-ager".
Drew my best friend and little sister Stealthy! Went with a lineless approach because it seemed like it'd be a challenge and I hadn't done it in a while.

A lineless digital drawing of an MtF cyan anthro fox named Stealthy. She has black ears, black paws, and black tips on her long cyan hair, some of which is covering your left (her right) side of the face. She has a white muzzle, turquoise eyes, a gray band above her nose and the middle of her tail, white claws, pink paw beans, and a white tail tip with a black zig-zag separating the tip from the rest of the cyan tail. She's wearing a cozy turquoise sweater, along with a darker turquoise skirt.
Stealthy is beaming with a large, open mouth, fangs visible smile. She is waving her right (your left) arm up to say hello. She is standing on top of a large, cylindrical purple podium, and behind her is a light lavender backdrop with a few large darker wavy lines, along with a few white stars which dot the area. Beside her foot-paws is text on the ground which reads "Stealthy"
What are you waiting for, it's free!

Digital art of Kate, an anthro gray house-cat with long, brunette hair. She has part of her hair in a beehive, bangs, and the rest falling behind and over her shoulder. Kate is wearing pajamas, consisting of a loose fitting pink nightgown, and purple sweatpants. She is looking directly at the viewer, distinct tired bags under her eyes, with a large smug grin. Her left (your right) arm is gesturing towards an empty cardboard box beside her. The box is open, with all four flaps at varying heights on each side. To your right of Kate, and above the cardboard box, there is text which says "It's free real estate". Kate, the box, and the text have a large white stroke around them, imitating a sticker design.
This phrase is a reference to a skit from Tim and Eric (Free House For You, Jim), which spread around and became a bit of a meme several years ago now. It is used in this context relating to cats tending to lay in shipping boxes. She is laying claim to the cardboard as if it were indeed, free real estate.

Didn't want to upload that same image from Reddit's furry_irl that gets posted each year, so I made my own. This is the only day this post will be accurate. Have a great 6/21 everyone!

A pixel art rendition of Esix, the mascot of E621, a website that hosts and tags furry art which is often explicit. Esix is an anthro feline like creature who has a literal hexagon for a face, a blue body, white ears with yellow tips, and yellow fingers. Portions of them, such as the fingers and ears, float above the body unconnected.The top of the image has text which says It's June 21st, where June is in a yellow ribbon styled rectangle, denoting the month portion of a simple calendar. The 21 is in a white square box under it, like a daily calendar you'd rip the page off of.
The bottom of the image has Esix looking directly at the viewer with partially closed eyes and a big smile. Their right (your left) hand is pointing upward at the date. Their opposite side has Esix's yellow flame tail visible.
This date is relevant because with dating methods which use Month/Day/Year or Year/Month/Day, it makes the number 6 21, which is the number for E621. It is mentioned in furry circles when it comes around each year.
The background is darker blue, with a series of even darker hexagon rings that form a hexagon in the center. There is a dotted white outline which runs across the entire border of the image.

I think I made the right choice, I've heard people are dying to get into these places after all.
An idea exaggerated from 100 too many crises and no more spoons. Doing what you can, and focusing on what you can control is enough.

A four panel comic which uses exaggerated postures and colorful backdrops. The delivery should be read sarcastically.
The first panel shows a disgruntled anthro mouse with brown fur, and light pink ears, hands, and tail. He's wearing a gray flat cap and a near black vest, which is opened to show a cream colored body. He's standing in a profile view, but with his hands holding a cocktail toothpick between his fingers, and his left (your right) arm is foreshortened towards you. The toothpick is also coming at you, with a sharp point and a sparkle at the end. There is text which says "We've reached an impasse. This is not sustainable!" This is in front is a purple background with a tunneling spiral of darker purple lines.
Second panel is the same mouse, but now with both arms raised above his head, both hands clasping his now vertical toothpick. His head is looking straight up, making only his screaming mouth visible. On the left is text which says "We either FIGHT" with a sword graphic on top, and "Or we DIE" with a skull graphic on the right. Left is alternating yellows, right is reds.
Third panel is an anthro fox, Foxfire, who has reddish-brown fur, dark gray paws, and cream muzzle, chest, and tail tip. He has an overly excited expression, eyes replaced with sparkles and mouth agape. He says "You mean...I get a CHOICE‽"
The final panel is Foxfire's tombstone in a cemetery. It reads "RIP Foxfire - THANK GOD!" There is a smiling sun to further empathize the absurdity.
Sharing your art be like.
I'm quite happy with my pixel art rendition of Foxfire this time around. He looks so excited!

A lineless pixel art rendition of Foxfire, an anthro fox with reddish-brown fur, a cream muzzle, chest tuff, and tail tip, and dark gray hand and foot paws. He is standing, has a big open mouth smile, and is gesturing his right (your left) hand-paw at a golden picture frame. Within the frame is a textured white canvas, which has a rendition of a rubber duck on the surface of water, with a purple twilight sky above. This scene is shown within a large paint spatter, which sprawls from the center of the canvas and outward vertically.
Foxfire is standing in an otherwise empty, dark, de-saturated purple room, with a gray-purple floor. The top of the image has a textbox in this same floor color which says: BEHOLD...A DUCK!
Black deck I feel doesn't really have any early ante unique strategies to utilize, it's just more difficult. In my opinion the hardest thing to get rolling on black deck is econ (-1 hand, -$1), so I found it even more necessary to reset for a small blind skip like coupon tag or investment tag. Until you nab some jokers which will determine your new path, you're forced to play big hands like flush, which sucks that much more with one fewer hand to round out the RNG. The millisecond the game gives you an out on big hands, take it and run!
I wish I could say I did much more than "retry a bunch and go with what the game gave me," but that's basically all that happened. Took me like three hours to do black deck on gold stake because I got hard countered without a boss reroll in two other candidate runs, but it's just how it goes sometimes.
